I'm thinking that maybe that's why all of the prosecutions of Marines has been done in order to combat this operation by our troops.
I don't know if the SAS has NCIS/JAG crawling up their b#tts, but I'm sure that they'll have some sort of propaganda fight waged against them once this becomes widely known.
Does anybody wonder why we don't list "casualties" like KIA, WIA, captured or possibles in weekly updates to keep a tally of the enemy dead? Cause we don't want them to know. The less intel they get the better. All they know is that Achmed, Abdul, or Muhamadama has just evaporated.... they don't know if he's dead, captured, wounded, cooperating or just hauled a##. By confusing the jihadist, they never know or have a hard time planning large logistical attacks. Cause they don't know their man or woman power.
I've seen Brits working with Gurkhas against "insurgents"....they are very, very good. I still think some of our guys are just as good or better at certain things, but I'd hate to have the SAS carrying around a photo of me and showing it around where I lived, worked or played.
I remember when the IRA were in a van to blow up and shoot a police station but the SAS had heard about this and shot everyone in the van and then disappeared
Another time there were 4 IRA in Gibraltar ready to plant a bomb and kill , well the SAS intercepted them and shot the 4 of them in the middle of the street
when one of them were asked in court about why they had shot so many rounds into them he replied because my magazine was empty
Thankfully these boys do not go by the normal rules and fight the fight like the terrorist does
